Maximize Your Vitality and Potency or Dont Worry He Wont Get Far on Foot

Maximize Your Vitality and Potency: For Men over 40

Author: Jonathan V Wright

A book all about natural testosterone.

Library Journal

Wright (Natural Hormone Replacement for Women Over 40, Smart Pub., 1997) proposes that many symptoms of aging can be significantly lessened by appropriate replacement of testosterone. Like other recent writers (Jed Diamond, Male Menopause, LJ 7/98; Charles Inlander, Men's Health and Wellness Encyclopedia, LJ 5/1/98), Wright favors the term "male menopause" for the climacteric. Like Eugene Shippen (The Testosterone Syndrome, LJ 4/1/98), Wright reviews the clinical research of the last 60 years and concludes that critical sex hormone imbalances occur in both sexes in midlife and that natural testosterone therapy is beneficial in treating a number of symptoms and diseases long thought part of the normal aging process: heart disease, prostate disease, muscle and bone weakness, depression, high cholesterol, weight gain, and diminished mental acuity, as well as sexual libido and performance. Wright includes more than most readers may want to know about testosterone; Shippen covers essentially the same ground and is probably the better purchase.--James Swanton, Harlem Hosp.

Don't Worry, He Won't Get Far on Foot

Author: John F Callahan

Is it possible to find humor — corrosive, taboo-shattering, laugh-till-you-cry humor — in the story of a 38-year-old- cartoonist who's both a quadriplegic and a recovering alcoholic? The answer is yes, if the cartoonist is John Callahan — whose infamous work has graced the pages of Omni, Penthouse, and The New Yorker — and if he's telling it in his own words and pictures. But Callahan's uncensored account of his troubled — and sometimes impossible — life is also genuinely inspiring. Without self-pity or self-righteousness, this liberating book tells us how a quadriplegic with a healthy libido has sex, what it's like to live in the exitless maze of the welfare system, where a cartoonist finds his comedy, and how a man with no reason to believe in anything discovers his own brand of faith.

John Callahan doesn't need feet to go far. He does it with guts, brains, fingers, and a wonderful sick sense of humor.—National Lampoon

What People Are Saying

P.J. O'Rourke
When people laugh like hell and then say "that's not funny," you can be pretty sure they're talking about John Callahan.—(P.J. O'Rourke, author of Holidays in Hell)


Roy Blount, Jr.
Actually Callahan goes too far, and he'll take you with him… He'll move muscles you don't know you have.
—(Roy Blount, Jr.)
